Dozens of motorists were ticketed in Bedford on Wednesday as New York State Police troopers conducted a special aggressive driving and speed enforcement detail on I-684.

During the detail, 57 motorists were cited for speeding, while another three were cited for failure to wear a seatbelt and an additional 11 were issued tickets for other vehicle and traffic violations.

In total, 71 tickets were doled out during the detail.

The detail comes off of another detail on I-684 late in September when troopers issued 53 tickets in Westchester. State police have also conducted special safety details on the Sprain Brook Parkway and I-95 during the fall.

According to police, these details will continue throughout the year as troopers make an effort to curtail dangerous driving and keep highways safe for motorists.
